This VMI rectangular mantel liner is the stainless steel interface between a decorative wood hood shell and the Air-Pro 08WP or 08E ventilator, sized at 48 inches to seat the ventilator correctly and protect the hood interior.
A wood mantel hood is built from three distinct parts: the decorative shell that frames the cooktop, the liner that fits inside it, and the ventilator that moves the air. This liner is the middle piece. It seats inside the wood shell, defines the ventilator opening, and provides a durable stainless steel interior that handles the heat and airflow the ventilator produces. Without the liner, the ventilator has no housing to mount into and the wood shell is exposed to direct heat.
The stainless steel finish is a practical choice for the interior of a hood assembly: it resists discoloration from cooking heat, wipes down easily, and holds up to the environment directly around the ventilator. The rectangular profile and a precisely cut ventilator opening at 16-7/8 by 43-3/16 inches ensure the Air-Pro unit seats flush rather than requiring field modification. The finish reads as a professional, commercial-influenced interior that suits a range of kitchen styles from modern to transitional.
This liner is the right specification for a wood mantel hood installation that uses an Air-Pro 08WP or 08E ventilator and calls for a stainless interior. Cabinet shops and installers building out a custom mantel hood for a residential kitchen will find the stainless finish particularly well suited to kitchens with other stainless appliances or hardware, where a matching interior reads as intentional rather than incidental. Confirm the shell dimensions and ventilator model before ordering, since the liner is sized and opening-cut to match these specific units.
No. This is the liner only. The Air-Pro 08WP or 08E ventilator that moves the air is a separate purchase and is selected to match your cooktop requirements.
No. This is the stainless steel liner that fits inside a compatible wood hood shell. The decorative wood shell is a separate product.
The cutout opening measures 16-7/8 by 43-3/16 inches, sized specifically for the Air-Pro 08WP and 08E ventilators.
Stainless steel handles the heat and airflow environment inside the hood cavity well and is easy to clean. It also pairs naturally with stainless appliances and hardware visible elsewhere in the kitchen.
Specify this VMI liner when the installation pairs an Air-Pro 08WP or 08E ventilator with a wood mantel hood and the interior calls for a stainless steel finish that works as hard as the hardware around it.
